Petronii Arbitri Satirarvm Reliqviae: Adiectvs Est Liber Priapeorum [Latin]

By Petronius Arbiter

This is a meticulously edited collection of the surviving fragments of Petronius Arbiter's "Satirarum Reliquiae," a cornerstone of Latin literature. This edition, prepared by Franz B cheler, also includes the "Liber Priapeorum," a collection of poems in a similar vein. "Satirarum Reliquiae" offers a fascinating glimpse into Roman society, culture, and mores during the reign of Nero. Known for its vivid characters, bawdy humor, and realistic portrayal of everyday life, Petronius' work provides invaluable insights into the lives of ordinary Romans. The inclusion of the "Liber Priapeorum" further enriches this collection, offering a diverse range of poetic expressions. This volume is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in classical literature, Roman history, and the development of satire.
